This may or may not have been true "once upon a time" but the people running
the GOP are no longer constitutional conservatives like, say, Barry
Goldwater. They have no desire to appoint "real Constitutional Judges" to
the Supreme Court or any other court. Their only goal is to pack the courts
with judges who believe that their churches trump the Constitution. And,
since the "other side of the aisle" lacks the votes to stop them, they
intend to appoint whoever they please. Won't be long before your kids or
grandkids will be forced to say good Baptist, Catholic or Mormon prayers
(depending where they live) in school daily. It won't hurt them to chant
"Holy Mary, Mother of God, ...." will it?
